It's always an interesting experiment to assume that the outcome was the desired result and look to see who benefits.
And who benefited? American Billionaires?
Among others. Corrupt government officials in all countries, car insurance agencies, certainly Chinese billionaires and billionaires of almost all countries, the US Democratic Party, even.
This implies that there was some massive conspiracy involving these parties to do what? manufacture and release this in the wild?
No, that's precisely my point, there is no conspiracy and qui bono is not sufficient. I was being unclear perhaps, but I was trying to suscitate your incredulity. Just because someone benefits doesn't mean they intended it.
Agreed, seems like it’s harder to tell everyday what is considered a serious conspiracy theory and what is beyond the pale. In fact I am not sure any conspiracy theory is now considered beyond the pale, seems like anything one comes up with will eventually generate a set of believers / adherents.
Please, do go on. Flesh out your theory for us to read and understand.
